Abstract: Systems and methods define a memory system using an abstracted memory protocol that enables virtual to physical mapping of memory address requests at an abstracted memory module. A memory abstraction unit abstracts timing and naming of memory requests from one or more clients to timing and naming at one or more memory devices. The memory abstraction unit includes abstracted memory protocol logic for interpreting the memory requests from the one or more clients. The memory abstraction unit also includes mapping logic for translating the naming defined by a memory access request by a requesting client to a virtual physical address at a selected protection zone in at least one of the one or more memory devices and memory control logic for accessing the one or more memory devices at the virtual physical address.
